Abstract: Recently, the development of indium oxide such asIn2O3on the III–V semiconductors shows successful technological applications as in the gas sensor field, the emission devices, the biotechnology, etc. The indium oxideIn2O3attracted considerable research due to many methods of its synthesis. In our study, we were interested in developing the indium oxideIn2O3on theInmetal andInSbsurfaces by electron beam stimulated oxidation. The formation ofIn2O3onInSbwas advantaged by a previous treatment due to the sputtering of the surface by the argon ions at low energy 300 eV with a current density 2 μA/cm2followed by heating in UHV at 300°C. Our results were monitored by the analysis techniques including the Auger electron spectroscopy (AES) and the electron energy loss spectroscopy (EELS) well suited to study the surface with respect to physical structure and chemical composition.
